This article studies a unique feature of the binomial CUSUM chart in which the difference (dt-d0) is replaced by (dt-d0)2 in the formulation of the cumulative sum Ct (where dt and d0 are the actual and in-control numbers of nonconforming units, respectively, in a sample). Performance studies are...

This paper proposes an adaptive fuzzy control application to support a vendor managed inventory (VMI). The methodology applies fuzzy control to generate an adaptive smoothing constant in the forecast method, production and delivery plan to eliminate, for example, the rationing and gaming or the...
